The Burden

In 2044, immediately following the election of another racist president, a group of wealthy Black people pooled their money together to take all willing Black people of Earth to a new colony in the Andromeda Galaxy they’ve built called New World
Sankofa. In order for non-Black people to gain citizenship they must go through a series of citizenship steps; concluding with a formal hearing in front of a tribunal. We open on one tribunal hearing featuring an Asian American man named Shawn Lee.
He’s proven he’s well versed in Black culture until they learn he’s a perpetual N-word user. The tribunal judges attempt to reason with Shawn to no avail; realizing he’s more appropriator than appreciator. He's a classic culture vulture; wanting everything but the burden. The judges have technology up their robe sleeves, though.

Village Treasures opens on a perfect California day. Stevi, a typical, screen-absorbed teenager, reluctantly tags along with her sprightly Aunt Meredith on a shopping trip to downtown Long Beach. The mundane day takes an unexpected turn when they visit Village Treasures, a vibrant African art store run by the warm and wise Max.

Stevi's world transforms when she stumbles upon an enchanting Kalimba. One pluck of its keys, and the store comes to life with vibrant, joyous African dancers. Each subsequent strumming of the Kalimba immerses Stevi deeper into the enchanting world of African culture, moving her beyond the confines of her digital universe.

Universe 25 Universe 25

Universe 25

A determined woman, trapped by a mysterious entity, is forced into a psychological experiment where she will never know anyone longer than 30 days. It’s difficult to say what’s worse: knowing that anyone she cares about will disappear, or that they might be replaced by someone worse. With no hope of escape, she must confront the absurdity of her new existence.

Universe 25 is an allegory for a universal human dilemma: how can you find happiness when everything (and everyone) in life is transient? Where is hope in the face of relentless adversity? A must-watch for fans of sci-fi, psychological horror, and character-driven dramas alike.
